Title: Need help identifying what hull I have
Post by: JPavy on June 29, 2018, 01:21:02 AM

Hello all! I need some assistance identifying this hull. I bought it in 2013 and it’s titled as a homemade ( due to Arkansas/Missouri DMV) 1968 Taylor. I used it for a few years and tore it down to rebuild the transom and do some fiberglass repairs. During tear down I never found an original H.I.N. so I believe it’s been rebuilt at some point. It’s a 455 Olds with a Berkeley pump.
